Anosmia and Symmetry sense

 Anosmia is the loss of sense of smell that could be total or partial loss of smell. Anosmia may be caused by head injury, infection, or blockage of the nose. Also anosmia could be temporarily lost or permanent loss of smell. This disease is difficult to cure. This disease also makes it difficult to taste foods. Interesting to know it also affects individuals sexual relationship interactions. For example human being sexual arousal starts with smelling pheromones'.

 Most importantly I discovered that Anosmia and Symmetry work together. Symmetry is a sense of smell that seeks out a particular smell known as pheromones' from individuals, which increase sexual attraction and intimacy. If anosmia and symmetry are not functioning correctly, your sense of smell is not working properly. Quite often, in spite of being vaccinated I awake in the morning with a stuffy or clogged nose so I thought it was. In all reality it's a case of anosmia which is the lack of ability to smell. I have noticed and witnessed my behavior upon awakening in this condition is crankier and irritable which affects me and others surrounding me. It amazes me how I could put things in a better perspective and identify what and why Iam feeling these emotions. I love this course! I must admit I never heard of the word anosmia before, I thought it was similar to the disease insomnia and boy was I wrong.
